The book is titled "My Father-in-Law is the Crown Prince." So, if the crown prince dies, does that mean the book should end and flop? When the crown prince was alive, instead of thinking about saving him, he was always worrying about what would happen after his death. What kind of father-in-law is that? He doesn't deserve the title!
In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang in his later years could have drawn inspiration from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Sun Quan, the King of Wu of Wei, was portrayed in the novel based on Zhu Yuanzhang, as were his crown princes Sun Deng and Zhu Biao. After the crown prince's death, his two sons, Sun He and Sun Ba, fought each other and were killed, along with the powerful interest groups behind them.
Why does it feel like the author has messed up the generational relationships? If Lan Yu and the protagonist's father are like brothers, then the protagonist should be of the same generation as Zhu Biao. And is the author trying to write a story where the protagonist marries the crown prince's daughter?
Are all the people in this court idiots? The protagonist has done so many amazing things, yet everyone still thinks he's just a barbarian? Even the emperor and the crown prince think that way?
In Zhu Yuanzhang's era, would any civil official dare to cause trouble? The cases of Li Shanchang and Lan Yu, one after another, resulted in tens of thousands of deaths. And the Confucius Mansion—how many civil officials, even ministers, dared to show disrespect to the emperor and crown prince? Zhu Yuanzhang wouldn't have blinked an eye even if he had wiped out half the court. Have some basic historical knowledge, okay? You can joke around, but you can't just make things up!
The salaries in the Ming Dynasty were actually not low, just not high enough to make one a superior person. Even the lowest-paid officials received over 13,000 catties of grain as wages, and the Ming Dynasty had a budget in place, making annual provisions for future expenses.
After becoming an official, the money for hiring clerks was paid by the government, unlike in the Qing Dynasty, where all money was collected by the central government, leaving local governments with no funds and unable to support themselves without exploiting the people.
It's so frustrating to watch; I might as well go abroad, seize territory, and become an emperor.
Lady Lü didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Despite receiving little historical attention, it has now become the mastermind behind various conspiracy theories.
The character is very interesting and unique; a stubborn simpleton, a street urchin.
A ruthless person
Try your best to preserve the lineage of Crown Princess Chang and prevent Concubine Lü from taking the spoils. Princess Chang died during her postpartum confinement after giving birth to Zhu Yunwen (the last person to die during postpartum confinement was Xu Pingjun). Zhu Yunwen was suppressed and spoiled by Consort Lü from infancy. Zhu Xiong Ying died mysteriously at home at the age of eight.
